The issue also looks ahead to Asia’s key races and regattas over the 2019-20 season, which opens and closes in Thailand, and also takes in Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia, China, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam and more.

China is playing a huge role in the upcoming Clipper Race, starting in London on September 1. A record three sponsored yachts from China will participate in the round-the-world yacht race, which will visit Sanya, Zhuhai and Qingdao in February and March of 2020. As well as looking ahead to Chinese involvement in the race, Yacht Style speaks to William Ward, CEO of race organiser Clipper Ventures.

Over in Malaysia, the second Penang RendezVous will be held from October 11-13 in the Straits Quay Marina, which provides a great backdrop for three days of luxury yachts and supercars, fashion and fine art, watches and wine, property and pretty people. There was a nice display of about 20 yachts last year at an event that draws attention to a country that often gets overshadowed in yachting circles.

The event is previewed in the Shows section, which also features a new addition to the yachting calendar: the Thailand Charter Week from November 16-21. The Thai Yachting Business Association, the event organiser, hopes the industry-only event can become the Asia equivalent of April’s MYBA Charter Show in Europe and December’s Antigua Charter Yacht Meeting in the Caribbean.

In fact, it has been an exciting period for local events all across Asia in recent months as seen by the thicker-than-usual Events section at the back of the magazine.
